Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Cd48 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- membrane distal domain
- extracellular domain
- cytoplasmic domain
- immunoglobulin domain
- Immunoglobulin like
- receptor agonist activity
- protein binding
- membrane-proximal domain
- Immunoglobulin V-set domain
